HSE School board presents cuts

Town Council to help avoid further budget trims By Nancy Edwards • nancy@youarecurrent.com

and lobby the state Legislature on the inadequacy of the current Operating Funds Formula. “This grass roots effort would stress the importance of a vibrant school corporation to the vitality of the entire community,” Easley said. Easley said that education/lobbying effort would look into extending the resolution that the county officials supported earlier in the year but would target the effort as a priority. “Additionally, this education effort would serve to galvanize the community in the event that the State Funding Formula is not modified to the improvement of HSE and therefore a HSE Operating Fund Referendum would be necessary to create funds to adequately support the education vision for the community’s children,” he said. Easley said HSE will work with the town to evaluate land holdings that could be monetized by the town. “The conveyance of $3 million from the Town of Fishers to HSE would allow the schools to avoid the critical personnel layoffs of staff and teachers. Easley emphasized that the plan would be a onetime action to provide headroom for one year as new efforts will bear funding—modifying the State’s School Operating Fund Formula and/or HSE going to the community with an Operating Fund Referendum.

HSE School Board voted to approve approximately $2.8 million in budget cuts for the 2014-2015 school year at its meeting April 14. Education The reduction is the first round of trims the district plans to make in the next two years. Pay-to-participate fees for extra-curricular activities, charging students for diplomas and diploma covers and selling graduation CDs to offset graduation costs, will save the district $409,600 next year. A total of $1.5 millionin health benefits for employees will be cut. Other changes include transportation cuts; parents of kindergartners will be expected to provide their own transportation. A half-day of kindergarten will be offered at one location with a minimal class size. The district faces an additional $2.8 to $3 million in budget reductions for the 2015-2016 school year. Mike Reuter, HSE hief financial officer, explained the cuts were necessary because the revenue the state provides is not keeping up with the cost of living.The additional cuts for the following year could affect personnel reductions for staff and teachers.

DVD review “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” is heart-warming, funny, with a few gentle life-lessons moments that aren’t too preachy. It’s the sort of movie that doesn’t aim very high but hits the modest mark it does set for itself. The film is pretty much a reflection of star Ben Stiller, who also directed from a screenplay by Steve Conrad based on the iconic James Thurber story. Read more at currentnightandday.com

DISPATCHES Fire department responds to grease fire – Fishers Department of Fire and Emergency Services responded to a reported grease fire in a kitchen at 12651 Republic Dr. Relatives were at home at the time of the incident.

Cardiac survival rate higher than average – The Fishers Department of Fire and Emergency Service’s first-quarter reports show the survivability rate of transported cardiac patients at 65 percent - more than six times greater than the national average according to the American Heart Association. “These rates are an amazing testament to the Protecting the Heart of Fishers program,” said Chief Steven Orusa. “We continue to be proactive in our approach to the Chain of Survivability to ensure that Fishers residents get the best possible care.” New sun safety program on race day – IndyCar fans have come to embrace many traditions at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in May. One custom that many fans don’t always plan for, however, is getting painful sunburns. IMS and its new sun safety partner, Outrun the Sun, will help race fans reduce their risks for sunburns at the track through a variety of programs. As race fans enter IMS on May 25 for the Indianapolis 500, many will receive UV wristbands (that turn color when exposed to sunlight) as a reminder to wear sunscreen, hats and sunglasses.

Ash borer disease: Pervasive pests news@currentinfishers.com The ash borer disease is ever present in Fishers this spring and, contrary to popular belief, it is not a new problem. The emerald ash borer is an nature invasive insect that kills millions of ash trees each year and according to Jeff Gatewood, the owner and president of Allisonville Nursery, it has been hitting Fishers fairly hardparticularly in the last five years. Every week Gatewood has a large percentage of residents come in to look for new trees due to the loss of an ash. When describing an already infected tree, Gatewood associated it with a chronic illness. “You can maintain it; it’s not going to go away,” he said. “You can either hire a tree service to annually treat it, treat it yourself with home remedies, or face the inevitable because you will be fighting and fighting it and if you stop it’s going to win.” One indication that your tree has already been infected is if dead branches begin to form. If that is the case it is not too late to save the tree. “If the tree is healthy now, you should treat it because it will become infected,” Gatewood said. Applying a systematic drench to the soil of the tree is the remedy choice Gatewood encourages his clients to use.

There are various methods of insecticides that can be implemented to save the trees depending on the severity of the infestation. Four of the most well-known methods include the soil-based insecticides that Gatewood recommends, trunk injections, lower trunk sprays and protective cover sprays. When replacing an ash tree, it is okay to use another one, although the same problem will occur. Many nurseries such as Allisonville do not sell Ash trees anymore. Gatewood has yet to see a decline in the number of ash borer cases each year, although he expects to soon see a time where the tree’s existence will diminish in the area. “In another couple years we ought to get to the point where it trickles in slower; they’re dying and dead and I keep thinking we are going to hit that point,” he said. If an ash tree is not treated and nothing is done to prevent the disease, it is most likely to be dead within a few years. The two decisions that must be made, in Gatewoods opinion, are finding the cost of maintaining the tree and then deciding how much it actually means to you. To have a tree removed or inquire on the status of it, visit or call any local nursery or tree service.

Local families face indefinite adoption delay from Congolese government

Like any other mother that has adopted children from overseas, three local women have completed the typical lengthy, rigorous process to welcome their new family cover story members. Background checks were successfully completed. Eager parents bonded with their kids after a long flight abroad. Rooms at home have been painted blue or pink and filled with toys and stuffed animals. Birthdays have been celebrated. Older siblings proudly drew pictures of their new brothers and sisters. The only difference is that the children have not come home. And the parents don’t know when they will.

“Adoption affects older siblings too,” AJ said. The Hibberts have a 9-year-old biological child, Elizabeth, who is excited about having a brother. “She and her Girl Scout troop 1675 represented Congo as part of World Thinking Day. I was reduced to tears because I was so proud of her as a big sister but my heart hurt because I knew she missed Isaac as much as we did.” Heather and her husband, Brad, are also waiting to give their children, biological daughter Madeline, 5, and Harper, a 20-monthold girl they adopted from the Congo in July, a baby brother.

Amanda Larner, AJ Hibbert and Heather Long are friends that have bonded through their journey of adopting. The Fishers women felt called to add to their families through the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a nation in the African Great Lakes region of Central Africa. The families worked with adoption agencies while going through background investigations. All the steps required to legally adopt from the country, including passing required classes, had been taken. U.S. visas were issued. Parents and children were ready to become a permanent family. The last official step was the issue of an exit letter, an obligatory document needed before the children left their native country. In late September 2013, the Congolese government suspended the release of an exit letter, due to concerns over falsified documents, child abandonment or abuse by adoptive parents. The sudden decision prevented hundreds of children from uniting with their new families indefinitely. “I never would have imagined that we’d see our boys grow up through pictures,” Amanda, 32, said. She and her husband, Daniel, also 32, have two biological children: Cecilia, 4, and Sebastian, 2. The Larners decided to adopt after their son, Sebastian, was born, and were in the process of adopting Rosalie, 7, Malachi, 2, and Dominic, 2, when they received news of the suspended adoptions. “My daughter (Rosalie) is 7 and not in school,” Amanda said. “There are clothes that they’ll never get to wear and so much that they’ll never get to do.” Like the Larner family, AJ, 36, and her husband, Chris, communicate with their son Isaac Bahati, 2, with photos. “I try to send Isaac duplicates so he will have a sense of sameness when he gets home,” AJ said. “Our only connection to Isaac is pictures and care packages.”

AJ, Chris and Elizabeth Hibbert celebrate adopted son Issac’s first birthday—without him. “There should have been him surrounded by family, cake and presents,” AJ said. “Instead, we had this cake to celebrate him and show him how loved he’s been.” (Submitted Photo)

“We learned in February that Harper has a biological brother,” Heather said. The Longs met Harper’s brother, Ethan, at 10 days old. Ethan is now 12 weeks. Heather, 31, will become a big sister as well: her parents are also adopting a girl from the DRC. “We went through the adoption process at the same time,” she said. “My (new) sister is the same age as my older daughter. I’m so excited.”

Taking action

As the families hope, pray and wait, weeks have turned into months. Some families have already lost children in orphanages to diseases or malnutrition. Fortunately, for the three Fishers families, their children have better care in foster homes, and their adoption agencies are communicating with them as often as possible to ensure the children are doing well. However, frustration with the adoption delay remains. “Up until now, we’ve not said anything and stayed quiet in hopes getting our children,” Amanda said. “We wanted to hide, but we’re not getting our children home. Friends have decided to help us be brave.” These friends of families waiting to bring their children home have written Congress—more than 111,000 letters have been sent thus far—through the following web site: http://www.petition2congress.com/14960/please-help-resolve-pending-adoptions-fromdemocratic-republic-co/. State senators and representatives have taken notice. Sens. Dan Coats and Joe Donnelly, as well as U.S. Reps. Andre Carson and Susan Brooks have all signed a Congressional letter to appeal to the DRC. “It was the first time I felt someone really cared and would try to help us,” Amanda said. The Larner family, meanwhile, will travel to the Congo to meet with the three children they are anxious to bring home someday— all while keeping the faith. “I don’t take one minute for granted; that’s the gift,” Amanda said. “I don’t know if I’d make it through without faith. It’s a huge blessing.”

Begin the immigration approval and international process for adoption with your program director. Receive information on obtaining fingerprints after acceptance by USCIS.

6: Dossier Compilation Start the dossier after completion of your home study. Instructions and forms for the dossier will be provided to you on your Client Care page. Documents must be certified/authenticated/ apostilled as required by the country from which you are adopting.

7: Dossier Submission Submit your completed dossier to MLJ Adoptions. MLJ Adoptions arranges to have your dossier translated and sent to the appropriate international officials.

8: Referral Referral information may include pictures, medical reports, social history, date of birth, etc., as permitted by the country. Schedule a recommended consultation with an international Adoption Medical Specialist to best prepare for the child’s arrival. After you have a referral, you will petition USCIS to issue an orphan visa for your child. In the case of the Congo, this takes approximately 6 months because the embassy investigates each case to ensure children meet the definition of an orphan.

9: Travel Receive travel dates for visit and/or to pick up your child from MLJ Adoptions. Work with country staff while traveling to coordinate attendance at various required appointments.

10: Post-Adoption Completing a Post Adoption Report (PAR) is required by MLJ Adoptions and the child’s country of origin. A home visit will typically be required. These reports are submitted to the child’s country of origin. Complete the legal process of readoption in your respective state of residence. The state accepts the child’s foreign adoption decree as if the child had been adopted in your state so that he or she may receive the same rights and benefits as a child who had been adopted in your state and will also allow your child to obtain an in-state birth certificate.

FR O M   T H E BACKSHOP Is Pence priming the pump for run? Did it strike you, too, as interesting, if not semi-curious, that Gov. Mike Pence spoke last week at the notable Hotel Adlon by Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate? He ripped Russian aggression and fairly demanded the White House bring back the mothballed missiledefense shield for Eastern Europe. He was taking a break from a privately funded trade mission to Germany. Pence, seizing the moment – even though his comments were right on point and delivered with force - certainly looked to us as an opportunity to get some face time and elevate awareness in case he decides to chase the presidency in 2016. Last year, we wrote in this space when the subject of a possible President Pence came to light that he needed to make more inroads in the Hoosier State. In the interim he has done that on several fronts, and so maybe it is time for him to begin thinking about casting his bid for 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. We’re just not sure the awareness is “there” yet, but we’re not stating that it couldn’t happen. It’s just fascinating to us that he would interrupt the trade mission to deliver his comments. We all should stay tuned to this one. ••• This was overheard recently: “I’m not voting in the (Fishers) primary (election) this time.” “Why not?” “Because (Town Manager Scott) Fadness is gonna win (the mayor’s race), anyway. What will my vote matter?” “Hmmmm.” No, NOT “hmmmm.” Fadness may well win the race, but that’s not the point. To think along the lines as the would-be voter did, in our estimation, is incomprehensible. Voting is an earned right. We cannot understand why anyone would pass up the chance to have her or his say on the future of any town, city, state or the federal election.

Breaking good

Commentary by Terry Anker

Since high school decades ago, Spring Break has been a ritual. Some years were certainly more elaborate and others more austere. But annually, just as the icy grip of winter was about to release us, a short vacation would inject the strength to endure a few more cold and grey days back home. With marriage, my bride accepted that our holiday time would have to be split between the traditional summer retreat and my much-desired late winter break. And as the kids joined our family, they, too, would travel along first in a stroller. Then on their own power. We have educated ourselves in the historic cities of the North America and Europe. We’ve sunned ourselves on the beaches and pool decks of resorts and hotels specifically built for such activities. And we’ve enjoyed learning together, sharing together and being together. When time and budgets would constrain us, we’d commit to staying in our own home but acting as if we were gone. We visited parks and museums that

we’d not seen and we ate foods dictated by whim and not nutrition. When in some far flung destination, we’d work to enjoy the culture local scenery. Not every trip was perfect. In fact, they would often be quite real. Missed flights and lost sleep would lead to cranky behavior – mostly in me but sometimes in others. But even as much as we looked forward to our departures, we’d begin to anticipate our returns. In the passing few days we’d shared adversity, broken bread, relaxed and been wondered by the vastness and, at the same time, great similarity of the world. This year marked our family’s final Spring Break with everyone at home and living fulltime under the same roof. Have we mastered breaking good? I long for more practice.

Q U O T E   O F  T H E   W E E K “I’ve got someone who will go down as one of the best VPs in history.”

- President Obama on Vice President Joe Biden

While Americans remember the first anniversary of the Boston Bombing, most are unaware of the 100th anniversary of an important battle in US Navy and Marine Corps history. On April 21st 1914, 6,249 “Blue Jackets” and “Leathernecks” of the 2nd Seamen Regiment and the 1st Marine Brigade attacked the coast of Veracruz, Mexico. The attack was ordered by President Wilson, better known as a pacifist, who had sent the armed force to the Mexican coast after the US flag was purportedly not accorded proper respect by Mexican authorities. A resolution was passed by Congress authorizing the use of force to rectify this perceived offense to national pride. The attack began under the pretext of intercepting the delivery of German munitions in Veracruz. The Mexican and German governments were assisting each other in the early stages of World War I in Europe and there were concerns along the Mexican/American border. The sailors and Marines fought house to house and roof to roof, taking out snipers and setting up rooftop communications. When the advance stalled U.S. Navy warships bombarded a nearby Mexican Naval Academy killing 15 defending cadets. In the end at least 126 Mexicans were killed. The American loses were 15 sailors and 4 Marines. On April 27 the American flag was raised over Navy HQ in Veracruz. Marine Col. John Lejeune, (Camp Lejeune, N.C. was later named for him) later recalled; “There was scarcely a dry eye among Americans who participated in it or witnessed it (Mexican) President Huerta had declined to hoist and salute the American flag, but we had forcibly seized his principal maritime city and had ourselves wiped out the indignity which had been put upon our country.” President Wilson was visibly disturbed by the loss of American life, “I cannot forget that it was I who had to order those young men to their deaths” in what he called “a war of service” Entire American cities paused to hold funeral parades and services. Perhaps 1 million were on hand along the parade route in New York City. An interesting bit of Naval Aviation history also occurred on that far off Mexican coast. The first flight in a combat environment occurred on April 25th while searching for mines in Veracruz harbor. Two weeks later a plane was hit by rifle fire during an inland recon mission, the first naval aircraft damaged by hostile fire. While we take time to remember the victims of the Boston bombing let us also remember these Navy and Marine heroes of the early 20th century who died in service to their country. Well done sailors and Marines; we will never forget. Ed Offerman is President of the Fall Creek Twp. Board and is a Veteran’s advocate & member of American Legion Post 470 in Fishers.

Break for beauty enhances attitude Commentary by Danielle WIlson You may recall that I stayed put for Spring Break while my husband and four children headed south to frolic in the sand humor and surf of Florida’s west coast. To help numb the sting of being abandoned for tropical paradise, I decided to treat myself to a day of beauty, or more precisely, an hour of cheap “fixes.” First up, my god-awful nails. I have rather sausage-like fingers with flat, dry nail beds, so I usually try to keep them on the down low. I also hate the expense of a manicure when I inevitably chip the enamel within 10 minutes of leaving the salon. But something had to be done; I’m a teacher who spends half my day pointing at numbers on a board. For the sake of the children, then, I opted for a more practical solution. Plastic press-ons, of course. So I popped into CVS to peruse their offerings and finally decided on a $6 set of Perfectly Perfect French in “really-short.” But I’ll be damned if those little suckers were easy to apply! Between gluing pieces of my skin together and eliminating air bubbles under the nail, I wasted a solid 45 minutes trying to get my hands to look “normal.” Eventually, my persistence did pay off. My fingers look longer, my nails look healthy and clean, and I find myself rat-tat-tatting on every solid surface I come into contact

with. I haven’t figured out how to remove them yet (the directions were somewhat sketchy), but so far I love my potentially permanent fake talons. First problem semi-solved, I decided to next tackle my pasty-white ginger skin. Back in the 1980s, four visits to a tanning bed would have fixed me right up, but now that I’m older, I can’t possibly risk, as my Mama would say, “Gettin’ the cancer.” So I opted for a spray tan, and as luck would have it, my visit was free thanks to an April special. Was I overwhelmed and confused as a lovely 20-something explained the application order of lotions followed by the four different “spray” stances so as to achieve maximum coverage and color? A tad. Did I briefly have skin in an Oompa-Loompish shade of orange? Affirmative. And are my palms five times darker than my shins? Unfortunately, yes. But can anyone now mistake me for an Irish vampire? No! Or at least not for the next five to seven days. In the end, my one hour of beauty did wonders for my appearance, and more importantly, my attitude. Peace out.

Civic Theatre actors rehearse for their performance of “Les Miserables.” (Staff photo)

‘Les Miserables’ a massive undertaking for Civic

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com

“Les Miserables” is anything but a slow-paced show. Sure, the production lasts three hours, but with the constant set changes, heated battles and emotional revelatheatre tions, the audience at the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre might need a minute to catch their breath. That’s not even considering the actors and musicians. Unlike some other musicals, there’s no spoken-word acting in this show. The actors’ vocal chords will be tested - even for such a large, seasoned cast. “It’s absolutely at a high pitch,” said Director Robert Sorbera. “The vocal capacity is at such a high level for the whole show.” From April 25 to May 10, Civic Theater will be putting on one of the most well-known musicals in history. “Les Miserables” is a tale of redemption that follows a peasant named Jean Valjean during the French Revolution. He spends years in prison for stealing a loaf of bread, but he decides to break free and live a new life under a new name. He is relentlessly pursued by a police inspector named Javert. Although it was already a famous show, it’s gained even more notoriety after a 2012 film version was nominated for eight Oscars, including

Best Picture. But don’t expect this version to be a carbon copy if you’ve seen it before. “Some people think acting is about turning into something, but you can’t turn into something you are not,” Sorbera said. “So every cast is different, and you see their unique personalities become a part of the character. It would be impossible to be a copycat of other versions.” “Les Miserables” is a huge undertaking from a production design standpoint, so Sorbera said they started as early as they could on the sets. “It’s an epic show, a huge undertaking,” said Dan Scharbrough, a Civic Theatre veteran who plays several characters in the show. “And I don’t like this term, but I’ll say, from a community theater scale, this is one of the largest productions you’ll see outside of a professional company anywhere in the country. The facility, the budget, the set design. The production values are fantastic for this show.” Of the main roles, Matt Branic plays Jean Valjean, Paul Nicely plays Javert, Nathalie Cruz plays Fatine, Joe Doyel plays Marius and Virginia Vasquez Voight plays Cosette. And even if you’ve seen the show before, Patrick Clements, who plays Enjolras, said it will be a whole new experience. “I’d love to see people refresh their love of their show,” he said. “Maybe you’ll leave with a different view on the show.”

Traditional fairytales stand the test of time. They are told across generations to develop character and instill morals. ballet And that universal appeal is why the organizers of Butler Ballet will be featuring the familiar tale of “Cinderella” in a three-act performance. Butler Ballet has been around since 1951, and, at the moment, it claims to be the only ballet company in the city that is performing fully staged classical works. Executive Director Larry Attaway said that every year the directed spring performance is a classical piece. “This year it happens to be the 20th century ballet ‘Cinderella,’” he said. “It’s based on an original French fairytale.” The story has been told and retold in many forms, but the ballet is based on the traditional tale. Attaway said, “The moral is if you are kind to everyone, you will be rewarded.” According to Attaway, the Butler Ballet has several classical pieces in its repertoire that it rotates each year. “Every year we bring forward a different classical approach for our students so they have a different experience,” he said. It takes the work of all the staff and students to pull off such a graceful and enjoyable production. “I am an executive director of the company

but all of the faculty members are involved in the choreography so we all come together for a great cohesive work,” Attaway said. “There is beautiful music, sets, and costumes. There is a great sense of humor throughout with the stepsister characters. It is a lavishly done production.” And early attendees of the April 25 performance should plan to attend a lecture on the physics of dance at 7 p.m. by science educator Mark Kesling, president of The Da Vinci Pursuit. “Cinderella” • Clowes Memorial Hall • On the campus of Butler University in Indianapolis • 8 p.m. April 25 and 26; 2 p.m. April 27 • Tickets start at $21.50 • For more information call 9409697 or visit www.cloweshall.org.

One of the side effects of hitting the 10 year mark as an entrepreneur is that I get asked the following question a lot: Finance “I am thinking about starting my own business, can you give me some advice?” My initial response is always the same – “Are you sure?” The statistics are true Most (50% +) small businesses fail in the first 5 years. So, at best, you’ve got a flip of the coin chance to make it work. That’s the good news. The bad news is that “making it work” often involves a business owner working tons of hours, earning very little, and accumulating a bunch of debt. Be clear about your “why?” Before you pick up another copy of Entrepreneur magazine, I’d like to suggest that you carefully consider the following question. “If I would double your salary and change out your boss for someone you respected, would you still want to start your own business?” If the answer is anything less than “absolutely,” then I have a simple piece of advice that will save you tons of frustration and money. Walk away. You may not love your current job, but unless you are 100 percent committed, I promise the glamour of owning your own business will wear off the minute you run through your working capital. The truth is that, intellectually speaking, own-

ing your own business isn’t all that difficult. We all know a “C” student who is a multimillionaire entrepreneur. But, you’ve got to be passionate about why you’re going to start your own business. It doesn’t even matter what you’re passionate about. You might be an avid cyclist and committed to helping your community become healthier. Or maybe, you’re like me, and you just want to have freedom and be the boss. After working with hundreds of successful and not so successful business owners, I have developed a list of the 3 qualities I have seen in every successful entrepreneur. Short memory – You will screw up a ton. When you do, learn and move on. Sales – You don’t need to be Zig Ziglar, but you’ve got to be able to sell your product/service. It’s extremely difficult to hire and lead an individual when you can’t sell your own idea. Support system – When I started my business, my wife Nicole, had more confidence in my abilities than I did. And, when I stumbled in the beginning she was the first to say “Don’t worry – you’ll figure it out.” We all need someone to lean on when times get tough.

Take your health on vacation Commentary by Kathleen Connelly Spring break in Fishers was awesome! I know we were all ready for it, right? My family traveled down to Fort Myers, Fla., wellness to visit Nana and Pop. It was gorgeous weather and we had a blast despite a very long drive and some traffic headaches. As we enjoyed our week I couldn’t help but think about keeping our regular health habits a priority and even taking advantage of a more laid-back schedule to start some new ones. I started our health habits on our car ride down. Every so often, I led the kids in a stretch break. Of course no one unbuckled but we were able to wiggle our bodies and stretch while having some fun doing it. I also packed snacks from home so no gas station treats were needed. Of course we packed a few treats but we also were able to have bananas and oranges that are easy to eat in the car. For many families, the normal pool routine is kids in water, mom and dad relaxing in the pool chairs. However, in my experience, kids tend to be more active when their parents get involved, too. When my husband and I got in the pool that was when the real fun began. I taught the kids how to play the game “Marco-polo” and then we played “get the noodle from mom game.” Instead of us lounging about or the kids just sitting on the steps, we were all swimming around the

pool, wrestling and having a great time! At the park we visited, my husband and I sat out from the splash pad fun but made sure to play baseball and basketball with the kids before the water fun. One of the opportunities that we had to start a new healthy habit came in the evenings. Instead of some screen time, we played bocce ball or the kids took walks with Pop. We went out for meals more than usual for our family but we made sure to stay conscious of what our choices were even though we were away from home. Of course we ate ice cream for dessert but coupled it with a beach walk first. Just like at home, it is about finding a balance. Yes, vacation is definitely a time to do some of those things you don’t usually do at home. But your health can still be a factor. Make sure to plan active activities along with relaxation, prep for your nutrition depending on what your travel plans are and remember that kids will take their cues from their parents. Envying vacation doesn’t have to mean letting go of our health habits. It just takes some work to take those habits with us. Kathleen M.

Hagia Sophia: Icons and history

BRANDON MILLER’S

BUTLER BASKETBALL CAMP 2014 BASKETBALL CAMP DATES: GRADES 2 - 8: June 9 - June 12 • June 16 - June 19 June 23 - June 26 • June 30 – July 3 (at Best Choice Fieldhouse in Fishers) PRE-K - GRADE 1: June 13 (Little Dribblers Camp) (at Hinkle Fieldhouse)

Commentary by Don Knebel

Istanbul’s Hagia Sophia is one of the world’s most intriguing buildings. Its dome is a marvel of sixth century engineering and its icons are a visible record of the area’s still tumultravel tuous religious history. In 527, with the Western Roman Empire in collapse, Justinian I became the Eastern (Byzantine) emperor in Constantinople. When a rebellion destroyed a small Constantinople church named Hagia Sophia (Holy Wisdom), Justinian ordered a new church built on its site. Ten thousand workers spent six years building a new Ha-

Hagia Sophia in Istantbul. (Photo by Don Knebel)

gia Sophia to reflect Justinian’s dream of returning the Empire to its former glory. Luxurious materials, including marble columns from the temple to Artemis at Ephesus, came from throughout the Empire. A 100 feet diameter dome was supported on 40 arched windows ingeniously resting on a square base. Icons helped illiterate worshippers understand Biblical teachings. When completed in 537, Hagia Sophia became the seat of the Archbishop (“Patriarch”) of Constantinople In 726, Emperor Leo III, likely influenced by Islamic beliefs, ordered the destruction of Hagia

Sophia’s icons as forbidden “graven images”. The icons were restored in 843, when Emperor Michael III repudiated the “iconoclasts”. In 1054, the Archbishop of Rome sent an emissary to the Hagia Sophia to excommunicate the Archbishop of Constantinople, dividing Christians between Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox. Crusaders sent east by Catholic kings captured Constantinople in 1204 and carried icons and relics looted from Hagia Sophia back to Venice. In 1261, Byzantine forces recaptured Hagia Sophia and added golden icons incorporating a style still common in Eastern Orthodox churches. Muslims under Mehmed II captured Constantinople from the Byzantines in 1453, renamed the city “Istanbul” and converted Hagia Sophia, at the time the largest church in the world, into a mosque. The icons were again covered, four minarets were added and a golden mihrab marked the direction of Mecca. After the Islamic Ottoman Empire was defeated in World War I, Hagia Sophia came under control of the Republic of Turkey, which uncovered the icons and made Hagia Sophia a museum. Some Turks insist that Hagia Sophia should again be a mosque, with the icons again covered. Stay tuned. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP.

Carpet 101: Terms, styles, materials to know Commentary by David Decker So, you’ve decided to renovate your home and install some new carpeting. There’s a lot to consider in terms of construction, indoors material and functionality. Where should you begin? Let’s take a brief moment to go over “Carpeting 101” so you can make an informed decision about the best type of carpeting to put in your space. First, let’s take a minute to go over some carpet vocabulary, just in case you are unfamiliar with carpeting lingo. “Pile” refers to the length of the carpet fibers, a construction characteristic that directly affects the carpet’s look, texture and durability. Long piles often look and feel more luxurious, but they are more difficult to maintain than carpets with short piles. Overall, the look, feel and durability of the carpet will depend on the height and density of the fibers. There are several main types of carpet styles. Plush carpet is probably the most popular style on the home market today. The pile is designed to be flat, which makes the surface of plush carpet feel more cushiony and soft to walk across. There are also textured plush designs, which are more resistant to vacuum marks and footprints. Frieze carpets are made from twisted, textured fibers that are both elegant, durable and an excellent choice for high traffic areas. Berber carpets have seen resurgence in popularity lately due to the carpet’s clean, professional look. This

Nylon carpet, the most common material, can resist staining and is a great choice for high traffic areas. (Submitted photo)

type of carpet it created by looping the carpet fibers into uniform rows; however, it tends to look worn out sooner than other types of carpet. Keep in mind, these aren’t the only types of carpet on the market. They are just a few of the

most popular in homes today. After deciding on the carpet style, you will have to also choose a material. Carpet can be made from a variety of materials, such as: • Wool: A naturally stain-resistant and durable material because it’s made from tightly packed fibers. Made from natural materials, wool is a bit pricier than synthetic materials. • Nylon: It’s the most common carpet material. Nylon is soil resistant, which makes is a great choice for high traffic areas. • Polyester: It’s stain-resistant like nylon, yet not as durable, which means it can be prone to wear and tear if installed in high traffic areas. • Acrylic: This material can mimic the look and soil resistance of wool carpeting for a cheaper price. The first step in any flooring decision calls for you to really think about the function of the room. Tailor your choice based on the amount of foot traffic and activity the carpet will be exposed to. The best carpet choice will not only look great, but also will last for years to come.
